The new versions upgrade the protection in [ESET Internet Security](https://www.eset.com/int/home/internet-security/), [ESET NOD32 Antivirus](https://www.eset.com/int/home/antivirus/) and [ESET Smart Security Premium](https://www.eset.com/int/home/smart-security-premium/). The wide range of security improvements cover malware detection, online banking, password security and smart home support – in line with ESET's goal to create a safer digital world for everyone to enjoy. With the ever-increasing volume of reported cyber attacks, it is vital that users are secured in their online activities. These product updates address key issues, including online payments and banking-related threats, identity theft and leaking of personal information, stolen passwords and connected device security. ESET is continuously improving its solutions to ensure that users are equipped with the very latest technologies in cyber security while keeping a low system footprint. The updates bring fine-tuning of the Host-Based Intrusion Prevention System and Advanced Machine Learning modules, along with a significant reduction in the size of the Machine Learning module. Other key updates include the new Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) and System Registry scanners capable of detecting malware that uses the WMI or the registry maliciously. The Connected Home module is also improved with better connected device detection and security issue troubleshooting. Financial security is a top priority and the upgraded Banking & Payment Protection features a special secured browser mode through which users can safely pay online. The new feature allows users to run any supported browser in secured mode by default. With secured mode on, the communication of the keyboard and mouse with the browser is encrypted to guard against keylogging. In addition, Banking & Payment Protection now also notifies users when Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is turned on to alert them about the danger of malware abusing RDP. Finally, ESET Password Manager has been completely rebuilt with new functionalities such as remote logout from Web sites and remote clearing of browser history, and is available via both browser extensions and native mobile apps. Commenting on the updates, Matej Krištofík, product manager at ESET, said: “As cyber threats continue to evolve in sophistication and frequency, it is vital that consumers and their devices are protected on every level. Technology is at the centre of our lives, from online banking to connected homes, so it is more important than ever that our personal technology is safe and secure. We are proud to offer our latest Windows security product updates to consumers, reflecting our dedication to consistently improve and innovate in order to provide a safe digital experience for all.” To find out more about ESET’s home security products for Windows, click [here](https://www.eset.com/int/home/#?platform=windows). ### Leave a Comment ## Related Articles ### [Sophos endpoint products rank first in all three of SE Labs’ protection tests](https://hubspot.obscuretech.net/blog/office/obscuretechnologies/content/pmxvemkl6o8qqy85) [Sophos](https://www.sophos.com/en-us.aspx), a global leader in next-generation cyber security, today announced that its endpoint products have ranked first in all three of SE Labs’ protection tests,...
